Share the .skp file so we can see what you’ve got set up.
What version of SketchUp are you using? Complete and update your forum profile.
Pro 2024
Ill send you the file
Forum profile is under D?
Click on the D in the violet circle at the top right of the forum page. Then the person icon, Preferences, and Profile. Make sure after you put the information in that you scroll down and click the button to save the changes.

When I opened your model I saw a bunch of guides.
Which graphics engine do you have selected in SketchUp>Settings>Graphics?
What graphics card? Is your profile at least correct on that point?
intel 630 1536 mb
And which graphics engine is selected in SketchUp>Settings>Graphics?
Switch to the classic graphics engine, quit, and restart SketchUp. Your graphics card doesn’t support the new graphics engine.
You can see that in the message above the Settings window.
How did you see all those other lines, I couldn’t
Also yesterday the guide lines looked fuzzy
My graphics card supports the new graphics engine. Yours doesn’t.
Still your choice of trying to use the new graphics engine.
All good now , thanks
How the hell did that get switched, I’ve never been to that folder?
I have no idea how it got switched. How long ago did you install SU2024?
Maybe @colin can comment.
When it came out
Well, I can’t answer when or why it was turned on. Did switching to the classic graphics engine make the guides show up?
Yep thanks a lot

Good.
FWIW, when you get ready to update to SketchUp 2025 you should probably consider getting a computer with a graphics card that will support the new graphics engine. That will give you benefits in both SketchUp and LayOut.
that’s what I was thinking , but this one I just hack around with at home
I have anM2 mini in the office
